I’m sharing my living vision for the sake of transparency and vulnerability. It was written in half an hour, out of curiousity, because I had doubts about how to construct it and decided to just be curious about what I could come up with based on what I knew about the process. I’m open to feedback. Thanks for reading:
I am filled with loving and gratitude that I’ve met my highest Self these past few years and that I’m aware of his existence. Connecting with him is becoming easier and easier as I learn to be the loving presence to myself that other important people in my life, despite their best efforts, didn’t always know how to be because they hadn’t yet learned to love themselves. It feels freeing to forgive and love them for both who they were, and who they didn’t know they could be, and for what they taught me about myself, just as it feels amazing to extend this same love and forgiveness towards myself for the mistakes I made living and doing the best I could at my level of consciousness at the time. It feels more amazing and more freeing to bring this attitude of love, compassion and also curiousity to all my present day relationships, now that I recognize these relationships as a reflection of the relationship I have with myself. I am aware of myself and all others as a manifestation of source energy, whether or not they’re aware or whether they believe in me as a reflection of such. It is comforting in dark times to remind myself of our intrinsic natures as spiritual beings having a human experience and I reinforce this knowing through daily reflection, meditation and reading as part of my spiritual practice. I’m grateful for the knowledge I have that my feelings exist with purpose, as a barometer for my alignment or misalignment with my highest Self (or Source) and that I know how to connect with my Self when I choose to do so. I am grateful that a different experience of my life is always a different choice away. And that by connecting with Self, I am so much more connected to everybody with whom I come into contact. I see this play out in a myriad of ways each and every day and know it’s truth through my own experience. This speaks to the ownership I’m taking in creating my experience of life, and is reflected in my embracing every experience, good or bad, as being present for my learning. My roles as father and husband are the ideal relationships for bringing up opportunities to heal, grow, love and lead and I am the loving presence I desire to be in the world because of them. Each day provides countless opportunities for change and growth. I am patient and grateful as I recognize the many opportunities I miss will come around again and again until I learn what is there for me to learn. Everything is unfolding in its own time, as it should. I trust that it is all happening for me, not to me, and for the greatest good of all….
Love it! If you come to our call on Thursday, I’m going to be asking folks (who want to) to share their Living Vision with the group.
Awesome Wes! Thanks for sharing. I’m willing to share mine on the Thursday call 🙂
Wow, beautiful Wes!
Thanks, looking forward to the call
